Pike Kilt lifter: scotch ale

Layers of sweet malt, reminiscent of caramel and toffee, are accented by a wee whisper of peat smoke, making this versatile beer the best-selling in Pike Brewing’s history. Pike Kilt Lifter pours a ruby-amber color, with its rich malts drawing your attention, and finishes with a slight piney hop character.

Pike Kilt Lifter is the best-selling beer in our history.

Pike Kilt Lifter was first developed by former Pike head brewer Fal Allen in 1998. Fal is now head brewer at Anderson Valley Brewery, Mendocino.

At the turn of the 20th Century, Edinburgh, Scotland, was famous for a dozen breweries producing strong ale. Without native hops, these brewers embraced a style more malty than hoppy. Pike Kilt Lifter is brewed in homage of these early Scottish beers.
